i know this should be in the styling room but i aint got enought time to put it in there, at work and on me dinner.

im thinking of getting rid of it(bit tacky)
Do i remove my sunstrip, have a plain red one or keep the red strip with the word VAUXHALL in the middle, what u guys think?

If yout turn your wipers on, when they reach there max point measure from the top of the screen downwards to the end of the sunstrip, if its over 40mm past the point when the wipers start then the sunstrip shouldnt pass an mot, but lots of people get there m8 dave to pretend its not there ;)

Get rid of it.

And if you replace it, don't use a red one. And definitely don't have 'vauxhall' written on it - everyne knows what it is.

Have 'spunk whores' instead.

Get it off! :D
IMO, the sunstrips on cars like novas, fiestas, e.t.c, have boyracer written all over em!
but thats my opinion!

theres only one sunstrip ive seen on a nova that i like loads, and i cant remember what it was, but it was the same as the body colour (silver) and had a web address in a groovy font - (nothing mad - just nice) and the web address was on the bottom right corner, cut out from the sunstrip - i liked it quite a bit.

ANYWAY

get it orf!

or maybe take the vauxhall letters off - c wot it looks like then

While we're on the subject, where i live, there's loads of standard shitters (and i DO MEAN shitters, not shitters as in not modified) driving round with 'motorsport' sunstrips on!!! Get them off!! :evil:

Get rid of it. I personally hate them, think they look tacky.

If you are advertising some1's name in the silver writing that looks cool.

surely it takes the same amount of time to click the Styling link and then you wasted more time by going on about dinner?

Ive got one of those built in ones into my windscreen (blue tint). My car is silver/grey. I need to replace windscreen as there is a half a metre crack in it. Should i get another with a built in sun strip?

my 5 door aint got the strip across the windscreen.

hey m8, i think you should take the lettering off but keep the plain sunstrip underneath, as long as its the same color as the car!

well ive taken it off, i might get a red or black sunstrip and get some letters frosted in the middle and stick a neon behind it so it's suttely nicely showing up, not sure yet.

What are the words gonna say? Maybe a plain sheep dip? Or maybe a 1970's styley one with your name and your lady friends lol :P

wisewood
26-11-02, 05:43 PM
he'll probably end up with "wisewood" on there or something :D

Anton
26-11-02, 05:46 PM
are you saying you are his lady friend then wisewood? lol :P

wisewood
26-11-02, 05:57 PM
well he used me as his avatar for a while, and kept changing it to match mine... and then he asks me if i wanna go to MK with him, so i think yeah why not... then he tells his girl friend she can't come with us.

Now either he was planning something for me on the way there - or he was scared his woman might not be able to resist my charms. :lol:

However, since then he has been overcome by her womanly charms and she is now coming along with us... so i think I will be safe. :o

just don't pick any soap up at any point during the trip :P

wisewood
26-11-02, 06:05 PM
Don't worry I wont - if his girlfriend sees me bending over she wont be able to control herself and will try and force herself on me no doubt.

lmfao.



sorry neil... I'm only messing mate.
I am sure your girlfriend would never even consider touching me, after all I am quite hideous in person, I actually have a full on beard at the moment - lost all interest in shaving last monday and haven't shaved since so I look a bit err, rugged to say the least. lol.
